'This hallway feels like it's going on forever...' Bunny thought as he kept a tight grip on your cold hand, keeping close to you in case something decided to jump out. Why this hallway was here? Bunny would never know the answer to that. It looks like he'll have some exploring to do once you all fix the Empire.

"We're here."

The others stopped at your words as a large room opened up to them. They all looked around the circular room in amazement, the walls catching them off guard.

Seven. Seven Souls that would act as Guardians to this world. Seven stained glass paintings lined the walls, their shimmering colours shining down onto the marble flooring and painting the room softly.

The first window was North's. The stained glass resembling him grasping a sword in each hand; elves and Yeti's accompanying him in the background. His eyes were full of wonder.

The second window, across the room from North's, was Toothiana's. It showed her surrounded by her fairies, each holding a tooth or a box with children's faces on them. Her mind held so many memories.

Beside Tooth's, was none other than Sandman's. Glowing sand had wafted around him in the painting as he sat on a bright cloud of dust, his heart full of dreams.

Across from Sandy's and beside North's was E.Aster Bunnymund. The stained glass showed said Pooka to be surrounded in eggs, each with different colours and shapes painted onto them; and sentinals with the happiest of grins. His smile held so much hope for the world.

Across the room from Bunny, and ironically next to Sandman, was Pitch. However in his stained glass painting, it held two sides. The left side showed Kozmotis, the long lost member of your family, holding a small girl in his arms. However on the right side...was Pitch. His gleaming smile and golden eyes pierced into the dark night air, Nightmares wafted around his body. His body held fear, more fear than anyone could ever feel.

The second to last one was across from Pitch's and beside Bunny. You got that right, it was you. The stained glass showed your figure off with your wings outstretched and your sword held in the sky. Music notes could be seen wafting around your body. Your voice held the most beautiful harmony anyone had ever seen.

"This is...beautiful..." Tooth said in awe, hovering before her stained glass window, "why are these here...?"

"These stained glass walls appear every time a new Guardian is selected..." you said, "I'm surprised the room is still intact..."

Everyone moved quietly and carefully to inspect their own glass windows, however, Sandy remained beside you, pulling you towards the final Window.

You sighed and stood beside Sandy, staring up at the glass window and into the eyes of the figure it held.

The seventh and final stained glass window showed a small, well rounded man. His perfect rosy cheeks and a single strand of curled hair was enough to make you smile.

Manny had grown up now.

Sandy took your hand gently and knelt down on the marble beside you, his eyes closing slowly. You smiled as you both knelt before the Prince, the moonlight shining in from his Window and casting down onto your and Manny.

The sigils.

The sigils on your arm were glowing, but no pain could be felt. Sandy perked up at the small tattoo-like drawings that were etched into your skin, a question mark appearing above his head.

"Don't worry...they appeared a few weeks ago..." you reassured, "they don't hurt anymore..."

Sandy's frown lifted a little at your words, staring back up into MiM's eyes. It's been a long time now.
